Removing Bermuda from St. Augustine. Anyone tried the new solution?

Posted by Azazello on 3/16/24 at 3:50 pm

Has anyone tried the new solution from Sygenta? The heat last summer in DFW was brutal on my St Aug and bermuda invaded the areas that thinned out. Before I drop $400 or so on the Recognition + Fusilade II combo, I thought I'd check with the board to see if anyone has used it successfully. [qu...

I am almost always on the credit side and never buy options, but I have a strong conviction the markets are going to rip this year so I’m considering buying calls. I normally trade QQQ, SPY, IWM so will likely start researching there. Any thoughts on other ETFs to look at? LEAPS or maybe shorter te...
